Inserting Shelving Units

All Vectorworks products include shelving units for inserting in a drawing file. In the Vectorworks Fundamentals product, the shelving units are inserted from an object library through the Resource Manager. In the Vectorworks Design Series products, the units are inserted with the Shelving Unit tool.

In addition to these common shelving units, Vectorworks offers the flexibility of Creating Custom Cabinets.
